About this deal

To the short arm on the metal boom, tie on a weak link of mono between 12 and 15lbs and then your chosen weight. Days with some overall cloud cover and overcast tend to give better fishing than days when the sun is bright, even in deep water. A slight breeze to ruffle up the sea’s surface is also good as it limits light levels entering the water column.

The concept of the fixed, moulded hook was introduced in a late 1990’s lure and together with inbuilt weight it continues in this latest model. This is a deadly technique on the inshore reefs. The old method used to be using the Flying Collar Rig, but the Whitby rig is better for this, you just need to extend the length of the hook trace to 8 or 9ft. The hook should be a size 1 Aberdeen to a size 2/0, depending on the size of the sandeel.Attach a small swivel to either end of the trace and then attach these swivels, one to the hook in the eel with a separate short length of line and the other direct to your main line; To the other eye of the rolling swivel, tie on a further 5 or so feet of 15 to 20lb fluorocarbon line. The muppets can be fished singly or with small fish fillets added. Alternatively, change the muppets for artificial sandeels or fish imitators such as rubber shads or soft plastic worms. It is found nationwide throughout the UK, also right around Ireland. It is commonest on the west coast and throughout the English Channel, and though present in the North Sea, it’s overall numbers there are lower than in the west. The south, west and northwest coast of Ireland also sees the biggest specimens generally, though the species are more widespread in the Irish Sea than they are in the North Sea.

Above the bead above the float, using a short section of Powergum or old mono, using a 6-turn Grinner knot, tie a stop knot onto the leader. This will slide on the line and allow easy adjustable setting of the float for bait depth. The image above is a representation of the rig, in a real-world scenario the hook length should be 7ft+. The short hook length here is just to show you have the rig is made. Finally, slide the combined knots/beads/lead arrangement to whatever position you desire on the trace e.g. 2" from the hook eye. The latest video information on the Eddy Jelly is now live so you can see the complete product, range and some catch footage of the eels in action. Play it full screen at 1080p HD quality for all the fine details of these eels. You can buy them by the single lure with or without a trace added and in any combination of colours.Fishing from man-made structures is best when there is a moving sea. Some swell and some surface ripple is ideal, especially on days when there is good cloud cover. In this shallower water a heavy sea will push the fish out, especially during the bigger spring tides. While the Eddystone Eel 2013 is a bit more expensive to buy than other soft plastic lures they are much more robust than most and will outlast the majority of the others ten times over, subject to avoiding snags, and present great value for money. Obviously, sea conditions dictate whether we can even get out on the day, but even in the depths discussed, the weather has an effect. To the lower eye of the swivel, tie on 36-inches of 20lb Fluorocarbon and then the lure of your choice.

General reef fishing is rarely in more than 100ft of water. This allows the use of the lighter 12lb to 15lb class rod, a small compact multiplier like the Penn Fathom 15LD, or even a Penn 525Mag3. These can be loaded with 20 to 30lb braid and again fished with a 20lb fluorocarbon or mono leader.On the "outside" of the beads tie the stop knots using the pieces of elastic for this purpose as if they were pieces of line;

On to both hook traces slide on a muppet, an 8mm bead and then a size 6/0 Mustad O’Shaughnessy hook. The current product catalogue still features eels modelled on the early design and are identified by the year number 1973. Various designs have evolved over the decades and the current pattern is known as the Eddystone Eel 2013. Often you can see major seabed structure show on the seas surface as turbulent swirling water or areas of flat water in a rougher sea. Remember though, that these structures will be uptide of the actual surface showing, but it gives you an indication of where to look then you can take a drift over it to see. If it's any help, I've had good results with Eddystones with my barrel lead only 2 inches ahead of the eel and with an eye painted on either side of the lead, near its front end! It was just a personal experiment but it seems to work as a "teaser" and it also makes tangle-free casting much easier. Once ready to start fishing drop your bait to the bottom, once your lead hits the sea bed and as your boat gently drifts over the ground being fished, slowly retrieve your bait counting the turns of the handle as you go. If you receive no takes from a fish drop down again and repeat the process. On the Retrieve

The Eddystones are available in a wide variety of colours including those which will suit the bass anglers. Using a flowing trace such as the flying collar rig, trace lengths can be anything from 3ft to 15ft, depending on tide run and the drift. Fishing a hook size 2/0 – 4/0. Many anglers also prefer to fish a paternoster rig, 2 hooks fished similar to the east coast killer rigs. Also part of their diet is crustaceans. They will eat any crabs they find, shrimp and prawn, and offshore Langoustines.
